Find the Asymptotes y=(3x^6-7x+9)/(7x^2+7x+9)

$y = \frac{3 x^{6} - 7 x + 9}{7 x^{2} + 7 x + 9}$

Step 1

Find where the expression $\frac{3 x^{6} - 7 x + 9}{7 x^{2} + 7 x + 9}$ is undefined.

The domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In this case, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined.

Step 2

The vertical asymptotes occur at areas of infinite discontinuity.

No Vertical Asymptotes

Step 3

Consider the rational function $R (x) = \frac{a x^{n}}{b x^{m}}$ where $n$ is the degree of the numerator and $m$ is the degree of the denominator.

1. If $n < m$ , then the x-axis, $y = 0$ , is the horizontal asymptote.

2. If $n = m$ , then the horizontal asymptote is the line $y = \frac{a}{b}$ .

3. If $n > m$ , then there is no horizontal asymptote (there is an oblique asymptote).

Step 4

Find $n$ and $m$ .

$n = 6$

$m = 2$

Step 5

Since $n > m$ , there is no horizontal asymptote.

No Horizontal Asymptotes

Step 6

Find the oblique asymptote using polynomial division.

Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of $0$ .

The oblique asymptote is the polynomial portion of the long division result.

$y = \frac{3 x^{4}}{7} - \frac{3 x^{3}}{7} - \frac{6 x^{2}}{49} + \frac{33 x}{49} - \frac{177}{343}$

Step 7

This is the set of all asymptotes.

No Vertical Asymptotes

No Horizontal Asymptotes

Oblique Asymptotes: $y = \frac{3 x^{4}}{7} - \frac{3 x^{3}}{7} - \frac{6 x^{2}}{49} + \frac{33 x}{49} - \frac{177}{343}$

Step 8
